Description
Alex Katz (American, 1927) After: George Washington, 1975. Offset lithograph on paper from the Kent Bicentennial Portfolio: Spirit of Independence. Unsigned, framed. Copyright 1975, Lorillard Company a division of Lowes theaters inc.
Alex Katz developed his highly stylized aesthetic in reaction to 1950s Abstract Expressionism, finding his own distinctive resolution between formalism and representation. His brightly colored figurative and landscape paintings are rendered in a flat style that takes cues from everyday visual culture like advertising and cinema, in many ways anticipating both the formal and conceptual concerns of Pop Art. Well known for his many portraits of his wife and muse, Ada, Katz has also dedicated himself to printmaking and freestanding sculptures of cutout figures painted on wood or aluminum.
mage Size: 7 x 14 inches; 18.75 x 22.75 inches framed.
